How will I remain relevant if they don't reprimand me? :'(

Kavanaugh crying sadWhile I do not proport this as fact, I would like to imagine that Ilya Shapiro is somewhere nodding solemnly in agreement as the opening line to Eminem’s “Cleaning Out My Closet” croons in his headphones.

It has been sad for Ilya Shapiro since he was unjustly attacked for merely trying to minimize the qualifications of President Biden’s then-undisclosed nominee to the Supreme Court by evoking oppression Olympics rhetoric (which, of course, ruled out the potential that the most decorated nominee in the last 30 years or so was chosen based on merit).

After this series of tweets landed him in Georgetown’s time-out chair, he recently went to Twitter to sob about how other people get to be big meanies but he can’t:

I know this is a lot to read at once, so I decided to put it into a format that is easier to digest.

Oh, and in case you were wondering about the protest Mr. Shapiro was talking about:

And — given the Alito leak that Kavanaugh signed off on — it would be pretty weird of him to start complaining about it:

And to be frank, whatever noise complaints Kavy Baby is getting is kind of tame compared to… you know… the type of behavior people with uteri have and will face if the finished Dobbs opinion looks anything like the draft:

Not sure if SCOTUSblog is gonna tweet that this is a grave sin or whatever — I’ll be chomping on popcorn either way. Maybe Shapiro can do it in their stead and earn the infamy he’s so clearly chasing.

I need this to be clear: I was done writing this article. Then this happened.

When I see someone has a talent for something I give them their props for it — especially when it’s for digging a deeper hole. Now let me hit publish before this gets even worse.
